Just not enough information. Is it just a lack of thorough testing? Why did the owner send it to a service center for testing before sending it here? How's this for a possible conclusion, dissatisfied consumer abusing free testing to escalate a customer satisfaction issue? Is shipping damage to blame for a broken processor? Corrupt firmware? Hardware issue?
You should not get pure noise from coax/optical with supported signals. I'm doubtful it is a bug. There are plenty of reviews and happy Anthem owners that have no issue with the coax/optical inputs. Continuing to test a defective product will always result in a failed review. This may be the effect of the review someone wants. Maybe I'm wrong but right now it's a mystery.
It's just sad that due to a bad test case a great company and product got a bad review, dissuading buyers. I suppose it can happen testing used equipment. I hope they get a chance to make it right and we get to see a test update including the analog side to make it complete.
